DeStefano's is just an all-around great dining experience. The steaks are some the best in the city (I've been to Sparks, Smith & Wollensky, Morton's, Peter Luger, Del Frisco's, Uncle Jack's, Old Homestead...) and you cannot beat the ambiance. Such a cute 35-seat restaurant with fantastic attention from wait staff. The owner, Joe, doesn't hesitate to throw in extras: Amuse-Bouche, complimentary dessert with 20-year old port. If any of Joe's family members are there, he is more than happy to intoduce you. \r
Also, the menu has changed and improved since CitySearch was at this restaurant. Maybe before criticizing the food, they should return for the actual menu.
Pros: Great food, ambience
